Seize The Sketch #23 - He counts the number of the stars...

Hello! Thanks for giving me some of your time today. We've got a new sketch up at Seize The Sketch, courtesy of hostess Lee Ann Barrett. I had fun with it, using some new-to-me goodies and a monochromatic color scheme.

I turned the sketch on its side, so I could accommodate the vertical sentiment from Shining Star / Verve. Love this sentiment...it is comforting to me.

One of the other sentiments in the Verve set has a sweet little star dangling down. I stamped a bunch of them in black, trimmed 'em out and assembled them along a thin piece of white ribbon. And how about that glittery paper? It was a Christmas gift from my little family, and it's called Mint by American Crafts. Not sure about you, but I thought of a bright yellow when I first laid eyes on it. Not green. But whatever, it matches the piece of Colorbok ombre patterned paper really well!

Hi Colleen! Back from vacay and trying to catch up. I LOVE everything you've created this past week, you've been a busy girl! My fave is the welcome home card with the pretty little hearts, CAS and sweet!!

Colleen, I just love your outside the box thinking. This sketch looks fantastic flipped and the little strip of black stars behind the sentiment- genius, just genius! So glad to be designing with you! You are inspirational!

Beautiful card, absolutely love the mint glitter paper. Sorry I think pale green when I see it not yellow. The colours and layout are perfect. So so eyecatching. I love that glitter paper, will probably spend the rest of my life looking for it :)
